How on earth does this cartoon put "women" down? She DOES work for the President, she is going to do as he asks.
I don't think it does, I say this only in the sense that one can argue that it shows a woman or black woman subserviant to a man.
I think it's a nasty political cartoon and one can take it as racist or not, I don't. I think it is in poor taste, and esp the way they draw poor Condi's teeth. Even SNL does this to her.
This country has come a long way. Ten years ago, maybe even five...you'd never see a political cartoon like that about a black figure or woman without a real backlash.
